Jim Carrey Quotes

"Stop blaming other people. If you’ve got a problem, take responsibility. Don’t count the days, make the days count. I think it is better to risk starving to death than surrender. If you give up on your dreams, what’s left. If you give a room full of children a box of toys and then take that box away, they’ll do the same thing creators do. They’ll make their own toys and their own own joy. Remember, every failure is only redirection. We either give ourselves permission to be great, or we confirm ourselves to mediocrity.""Desperation is a necessary ingredient to learning anything or creating anything. Period. If you ain't desperate at some point, you ain't interesting.""Originality is really important.""I wish everyone could become rich and famous so they'd see it wasn't the answer to anything.""As far as I can tell, it's just about letting the universe know what you want and working toward it while letting go of how it comes to pass.""I don’t need validation anymore. I’ve already validated myself""You can spend your whole life imagining ghosts, worrying about the pathway to the future, but all there will ever be is what’s happening here""Your job is not to figure out how it’s going to happen for you, but to open the door in your head and when the door opens in real life, just walk through it""Fear is going to be a player in life, but you get to decide how much""I don’t believe in hope. Hope is a beggar. Hope walks through the fire, and faith leaps over it""I learned many great lessons from my father, not the least of which was that you can fail at what you don't want, so you might as well take a chance on doing what you love""The effect you have on others is the most valuable currency there is""Behind every great man is a woman rolling her eyes""If you aren't in the moment, you are either looking forward to uncertainty or back to pain and regret""My focus is to forget the pain of life. Forget the pain, mock the pain, reduce it. And laugh""I think everybody should get rich and famous and do everything they ever dreamed of so they can see that it's not the answer""Your need for acceptance can make you invisible in this world""You can fail at what you don't want, so you might as well take a chance on doing what you love""Life opens up opportunities to you, and you either take them or you stay afraid of taking them"
